Studio Internship at Women’s Studio Workshop
POSTMARK DEADLINE OCTOBER 15TH
Studio interns work along with WSW staff on projects including printmaking, papermaking, book arts, and arts administration. In addition to assisting with the on-going operations of the facility, interns assist WSW's Artists-in-Residence with their projects, work with artist-educators in WSW's Art-in-Education program, and participate in WSW's Summer Arts Institute classes as studio assistants. Internships include housing and a stipend of $200 per month. Interns work 40 hours a week, generally M-F, 9-5 pm, but the schedule changes to accommodate the workshop's schedule. Intern sessions culminate with an Exhibition of work created during their stay.

The exhibition presents two connected bodies of material: a survey of artists’ books by Australian painter, sculptor and bookmaker Robert Jacks (1942-2014), and an extensive selection of publications drawn from Jacks’ own collection, many of which were purchased from Printed Matter in the early years of the organization.
